Just rev to about 4K rpm and let the clutch slip a little. When it's time to go, let off the clutch and BAM! You launched. Not very hard to do with some practice. But that's just how I do it.
And no, we're not always here. Just happen to be on at the same time as you. I'm off of work though (early bird special). No school, no wife, no sex life, no social life...just home...and my compy...

This would be my first post ever. i have been a member for a couple years but have never felt the need to post. i have seen many morons post with stupid comments and questions, but most of them were young kids that watched the f&f too many times. but u on the other hand clam to be going into college and at the rate ur going u might not ever make it there if u go and try to street race because u think its cool or all ur friends are doing it. ur the kind of people who we see on the news that were street racing and killed a family of four because u cut them off because u thought u were a street racer. dumb people like u shouldnt even be driving on the street.
and if u dont think u can lose control while trying to lauch u really are incompetent. and quit starting all these stupid treads to ask stupid questions go look something up if u dont know it.

going to college, but will always be a kid at heart *wink* heck, i know tons of grown adults who still act like they're still teenagers, whoever said i was gonna street race? trust me, i know my intentions, and not untill im ready, i'll still be driving a corolla, u got me wrong, i like fast cars, but whoever said i was gonna be stupid enough to "killed a family of four", its how u said ur words, like you pointed to me and threatened me like that, i may be a kid amongst everyone in here and a minority growing up in this country, but i know respect, and would never judge someone by how they talk or type on the internet, what ever happened to "we were all n00bs once?" i may not know a lot about street racing and fast cars (thats why im here, no shit?), but where there's a disadvantage, there's an advantage, if u know what i mean
oh and tf&tf, pfft, i could make a better movie in my sleep, this is actually the first time i've posted something about tf&tf *hint* *hint*

of course you can lose control of your car launching. especially high hp FWD cars. they just drive themselves into the wall. and high powered RWD cars throw their rears into the wall.

Please do everyone at AF a favor. Go to howstuffworks.com and google.com and search for your questions first. Learn how a car works, etc, and maybe you won't look like such a fool.

Yeah man kep posting the funny stories. But with launching I think you friend needs to try and launch something a little slower before he launches something with a lot of power. I hope that car had a lot of power cause if your friend did that with a slow car and ran into a house he needs to turn in his license
